The latest slice of surfing joy from Taylor Jensen, the Firewire Hull Rider has landed. This is an easy surfing longboard for waves up to head high that definitely dials up the fun factor. Innovative design details and the epic Helium construction combine to give a great ride.
The TJ Hull Rider is fast to surf and along with that comes outstanding stability. As the name suggests the Hull Rider has a teardrop shaped scoop under the nose which is great for nose riding becasue it helps to generate lift. The entry rocker is pretty flat, you can immdeiatley feel the effect of this combo by the way the board is so smooth to paddle and surf, it just glides along! The hull contoured base of the board gives a real feeling of connection to the water, that hull concept is a big factor in how stable the board feels too. The rails are fairly pulled down which means the board bites fairly quickly when pushed on to the rail, with that hull bottom it feels like it rolls really smoothly onto the rail and then you're off!
Firewire’s Helium tech is all about making an already amazing set of construction options even better. Its lighter, more durable than regular PU boards and thus far is proving a little more robust than Firewire's LFT construction. High Density Aerospace Composite Deck Skins and a new Paulownia/Balsa mix on the rails gives a faster flex response. Having surfed the tech in a couple of different models it does feel light but the speed through a stiffer feel and responsiveness is exceptional, Helium is here to stay.
Firewire surfboards are more durable than other surfboard manufacturing processes, and for 90% of surfers they will improve your surfing. Firewire is pushing the limits of applying new technology and innovation to surfboard design and always has an eye on the environmental impact of what they do, they truly are different to the other board companies out there. Firewire have come a long way since the early boards and the range of shapes and tech just gets better and better. A big chunk of the boards in the range are perfectly suited to the waves that 90% of us surf on a regular basis so if you haven't already give them a try.
